Your question regarding the chronometer case backs you show:
1) the 30 Rg (SC) chronometers have:
a) a case serial number
on gold cases
b) a model number (often called reference number) but no case serial#
on SS cases, for example "2367" like in the image above
2) It is seldom seen on few gold cases that there are both numbers, a serial# plus case model number (aka reference#)
I have observed this only on late chronometer models around 1950
I have 3 French 30 Rg SC chronometer watches and all of them have different numbers in the case back although all of them have the same case design and same type of movement.
10.633.8xx
10.633.9xx
10.634.7xx
and an other one which was sold on ebay
10.639.485
On 2 other French cased watches of a different case type:
10.767.7xx
10.827.5xx
So the only conclusion out of this: it is a case serial number.
I support this idea from you!
